Xbox and Playstation are Working Together?!?

On This episode of the Downloadable Gaming Podcast we recap the stories that took place over the weekend.

Red Dead Online players have been reporting that piles of dead and burnt horses can be found throughout the game outside of major towns such as Valentine. This had led to not only something that is visually bothersome, but also causing performance issues such as frame rate drops and server disconnections. The potential cause of this problem is a duplication glitch that people in Red Dead Online have been using in order to duplicate the amount of fish they caught in their inventory. The issue has been brought up to Rockstar, but there hasn't been any confirmation that this issue has been fixed.

Activision is breaking their normal Call of Duty cycle, opting to scrap Sledgehammer's scheduled 2020 title and put Treyarch's Black Ops 5 to release in 2020. This is caused after some tension between Sledgehammer Games and Raven, the studio assisting with Sledgehammer's game. Now both of these companies will be assisting with the campaign for Black Ops 5 and this also gives Treyarch only two years before their game is set to be released.

Sony and Microsoft are working together! The two gaming giants have agreed to work together on a cloud based gaming service that is suppose to make it more enjoyable for gamers like us. But are they really doing it for us? Or because Google is right around the corner from releasing their own cloud based service?

We'[re Getting A Mortal Kombat Movie!?!

We'[re Getting A Mortal Kombat Movie!?!

On episode 6 of the Downloadable Gaming Podcast we talk about the fact that the roles of "casual" and "hardcore gamers no longer exists, Netflix will have a panel on this years E3, and we will be getting a new Mortal Kombat movie.

Over the past few decades there used to be only two segments of gamers in the world. You were either considered a hardcore gamer; someone who spends a significant amount of money and time to video games. Or you were a casual gamer, someone who spent some money and time towards gaming. But recently those roles have changed thanks to the emergence of streaming and eSports. Now we have eight different segmentation from the hardcore of gamers who spend thousands on their PC, to those who would rather sit on the couch and watch an eSports event or someone elses Twitch stream.

In a funny, yet painfully scripted, conversation. E3 and Netflix announced that the streaming giant will indeed have its own panel during the June convention. The theme of Netflix's panel would be bringing our favorite Original Series' to video games. While we do not know any other series besides Stranger Things that will become a game, it will be interesting to see what Netflix has up its sleeve.

We haven't had a Mortal Kombat movie since the original film back in 1995. That will be changing according to numerous tweets pointing to the biggest film production in Australia will be a remake of the Mortal Kombat Movie. Not only that, but James Wan; director of Aquaman, will be coming onto the project as a producer.
